WOMEN WORKING IN CAMPAIGN Organization Chairman Points Way to Service. Profiteering was cited as one of tbe many fields for needed legislation in public affairs which vitally affect 'women by Mrs. Martha Yoh Marson, Marion coGnty democratic organization chairman of women, in an address to the democratic women of the Fourteenth ward at the home of Heydon Buchanan, Morris and Reisner streets, yesterday afternoon. Campaign plans outlined by Mrs. Marson met with enthusiastic response from the vo pn who voluntarily expressed the desire to do all the work they can. Mrs. Marson declared herself very much pleased with the promptness with which democratic women are coming forward with offers for service. TO HOIID WARD AND PRECINCT MEETINGS. The meeting yesterday afternoon wns the initial step toward a series of ward and precinct meetings which Sirs. Marson will arrange in Marion county for the purpose of organizing the women. Mrs. Marson urged that the women bold meetings among the* selves in small or large groups, and said that she would send a speaker whenever one is desired. “There .are few things which women come in contact with that are not affected by some form of legislation aud therefore womeiy should have some responsibility In deciding these matter!!,’’ declared Mrs. Marson in answer to the assertion that a number of women have said that a woman does not have tne time to vote if she manages her home. Mrs. Marson declared that every woman who Is intelligent and is capable of thinking and reasoning should see that such an attitude shows gross ignorance. WOMAN’S STAND ON LEAGUE OF NATIONS. Mrs. Marson said that she could not understand why any woman should repudiate the league of nations unless she Is seeking to have a repetition of the horrors and griefs of the past war. A' brief outline of the organization of the women in Marion county and throughout the state was made by Mrs. Marson, who said that it is parallel to the men’s organization and being closely related to It co-operates with it. In discussing the work of the women she said that she wants really to know that the women are working. “The most important part of the organization Is not to have a list of nil the ward and precinct representatives In my office, but to have reports from the wards and precincts that the women are working, registering and bringing democratic women to the polls, and making all women see the fundamental difference between the two parties,” said Mrs. Marson. Stress was lait on the necessity of registration. “We want to be ready for the registration so we can have one person on each block who will see that every person of voting age In that block is registered, and so after September we can have a list of thoso who have aot registered and talk to them personally.” WOMEN’S MEETING IN INDIANA. A number of meetings are being held In different parts of the state this week by democratic women. Miss Gertrude F. McHugh, Mrs. Alice Foster MeCnlloch and Miss Julia K. Landers left yesterday afternoon for Princeton to attend the all-day rally today and will go to Evansville this evening for the big democratic rally there. Miss Landers will Introduce Miss Chari Williams, first vice-chairman of the democratic national committee, who will be the principal woman speaker at EvansTllle. There will be an all-dav session Friday, Ang. 27, of the women’s democratic state comnrittee for the purpose of discussing the state organization and going over the county organizations. / The meeting will be open to district chairmen only. Mrs. McCulloch will speak at Bedford Saturday afternoon and Mitchell Saturday night on the principals of the democratic party and, the purposes of organization Mrs. Hortense Tapp Moore will speak at a democratic rally at Arcadia Friday night, and at a similar rally at Lebanon Saturday night. Mrs. Mason announced that she will hold a meeting for thd women of the Third ward Thursday evening, at the home of Charles C. Cahill, 1141 West Thirty-first street. There will be an informal discussion among the women of questions relating to the work in that ward, and Mrs. Marson will outline the organization work among the women in this county.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
Yon remember in the Inst story thit a band of fairies came to help Puss and the Prince, who were looking for the Prince’s father and mother. Well, just f.s the fairies appeared a great oak tree spread out two of its/limbs like a pair of arms, and two of its great roots turned into legs, and the next thing that happened a tremendous great giant stood before them. “What may I do to help you?” asked Giant Oaktree, and then all the little fairies began to sing: '•Help us, giant, great and strong, The Prince has need of you. We are afraid, so lend your aid; Bring back his parents true.” "I will.” roared the Ginnt Oaktree, and after that he stretched forth one of his *great arms and pointed to a little hut that was half hidden in the trees. And then Puss and the Prince, accompanied by the fairies, did as Giant Oaktree told them. And when they looked into the window there sat the Lord and his Lady chained to the wail. ‘'Now," said Puss, “I will test the magic of my golden feather,” and he pressed it against the locked door and IIT the twinkle of an eye it sprang open. And after that he touched the chains that bound the Lord and His Lady, and in a moment they were free. And then they heard a voice that sounded like the wind amongst the leaves. It was the voice of Giant Oaktree telling them to hasten away, for he could see from his topmost branches the robbers returning. And then the fairies changed four of their butterflies into horses so that Pnss and the Prince, with his parents could ride away swiftly, and in less time than X can tell it to you they were safely out of the forest and on their way home to the castle. And the Prince was so giateful to Puss that he gave blra hi* purse and after that Puss said good-by and went non Ims way.
HERE IS THE LATEST'MOVIE NEWS And It Concerns Two Splendid Favorites
There are sure to be some fans who will ivaut this picture for their scrapbooks, because lit shows the cuarmlng profiles of their favorite actors, Alice Joyce and Robert Gordon. It is seldom indeed that one gets a photograph of both a popular man and woman star. And it is quite unusual to have Alice Joyce and Robert Gordon appearing In the same picture. Robert Gordon was borrowed for two Vitagraph specials and that is why we find him with Alice Joyce. He plays opposite her in “The Vice of Fools.” This photograph shows one of the scenes In the play where Robert finds it particularly hard to tie the formal knot and Alice is helping him out. The latest news about both players is that Robert has bought himself and wife a home near Ithaca, N. Y., where he has been disking pictures recently. Concerning Alice Joyce, she Is to be directed by nifte other than the famous Mrs. Sydney Drew in the future. This means that Mrs. Drew has given up her own plans about acting and will confine her work to directing in the future. The first picture she will direct with Miss Joyce in the lead will be “Cousin Kate.” -i- -iNOW OX VIEW.

"Give me toll,’ said the man who kept the bridge. So Puss opened the purse ■which he had just received from the Prince and paid the toll keeper, and then he crossed over, and wasn’t he glad to find himself once more in dear old Mother Goose Land, for right in front of him was a post with a signboard on which was written in large letters ‘‘This is the road to Banbury Cross."

COUNTY LEVY TO GO TO 33 CENTS Annual Budget Shows Big In- ' crease From 1919. With the county budget calling for the appropriation of $1,580.477.50 for next year, as against $1,418.653 this year, the new county tax levy will be approximately Increased from nineteen to thirty-three cents, County Auditor Leo lv. Fesler estimated todny. Increases In every levy, with the exception of that of the state, Mr. Fesler believes, will bring tbe tax rates which taxpayers residing in the city must pay to the following figures: Indianapolis, In Center township, $2.30 on; - Indianapolis, In Warren township, Including Irvington, $2.45 (approximately); Indianapolis, la Washington township, or all that part north of Maple drive, $2.55 (approximately), and Indianapolis, In Wayne township, $2.40 (approximately). Most of Indianapolis lies in Center township. The estimated rates here are compared with last year as follows: City, $1,061, against 73 2-10 cents last year; school city, 68 cents as against 45 cents; township, 4 9-10 cents against 4 8-10 cents; county, 33 cents as against 19 cents, and state, 18 cents, which is the same as last year. “The higher rate in Warren. Washington aud Wayne townships,” said Mr. Fesler. “is caused by the building of concrete roads, for which bonds have been sold. WASHINGTON DEBT HEAVY “Washington township alone has Issued more than $600,000 worth of road bonds in the last two years. “Its bond tax for the next year will be at least 27 cents of the $2.55 rate. “Warren toAnship’s road rate will be at least 25 cents of the estimated $2.45.” Mr. Fesler said he believed the total city rates have been boosted above $2 because of the deficits due to the rates es-
